Dominated by the towering Andean range, Ecuador is a country of magnificent highlands, dramatic slopes, dense rainforests, fertile lowlands and tranquil sandy beaches. Its immense variety of landscapes and habitats support a unique flora and fauna comprising a literally unparalleled biodiversity. The highlands north of Quito with its UNESCO heritage listed Old Town are not only famous for their vistas, but also for their colourful markets. The southern highlands contain Ecuador’s wildest scenery, dotted with tiny ancient villages. While nature buffs and ornithologists may want to explore the jungles of the Oriente, the less adventurous may fall in love with the unspoilt beaches and picturesque fishing villages on the Bahía de Manta. One should, if possible, follow the lure of the magnificent Galapagos Islands, 1000 km off the coast.
